E Pluribus Choose-Em Round 1: at Portland Timbers

As of 7:30 pm CST on March 3, submissions are no longer being accepted.

Welcome to E Pluribus Choose-Em Round 1! This is far more important than any other competitions kicking off this weekend, so we expect it will be a fierce battle to see who can take an early lead at the top of the table.

If you haven't familiarized yourself with the rules, please read them here. Even if you do know what you're doing, there's a few important things to remind you of.

Everyone can participate.

Ten points are possible each round. The complete scoring system can be found here.

Predictions should be made in the comments below. They must be posted no later than 7:30 CST on Friday. That gives you plenty of time for research.

Standings will be released as soon as we can tally points, but it may be a few days.

Finally, a review on how we'd like predictions formatted (but as long as you make everything clear, anything works):

Win, Minnesota United 2-1 Portland Timbers

Alvbage, Davis, Demidov, Calvo, K. Venegas, Ibarra, Schuller, Saeid, Molino, J. Venegas, Ramirez

IMPORTANT NOTE: FB Jérôme Thiesson is out for Friday's match, and F Abu Danladi is questionable.
